Well I think it extraordinary in the sense that we have a bright, sparkling, happy scene, a massive milling crowd...and a man, alone, in 3/4 profile with a pig nose on his forlorn face.
It is a Felinni moment if you like...made better and truer of the human condition by me.
So there is no interesting story in the normal sense of what is the story....the story is us, being human.
